Shower remodels
Shower remodeling
A tiled shower that stays dry behind the tile, which is where most leaks begin.
A waterproof membrane and a pan that slopes the right way to the drain. That layer decides whether the wall rots in ten years.
A frameless panel or door is measured once the tile is set, so it usually arrives about a week after.
- 01Niche
A recessed shelf for bottles, framed into an inside wall before the tile goes up.
- 02Bench
A seat framed in solid or one that floats on hidden brackets. Both need blocking before tile.
- 03Mixing valve
A pressure balancing valve holds the temperature steady when someone flushes.

Shower remodels questions
How long does a shower remodel take?
Usually 1 to 2 weeks of work, then about a week of waiting for the glass.
Can I keep the drain in the same spot?
Yes, and that keeps the price down. Relocating it means cutting into the floor.
Is a permit needed for a shower remodel?
When plumbing is added or the drain moves, yes. Your contractor files for it.
